Final Project Part 11- Political Stickers: Abortion


One of the most well-known issues that Christianity is highly intertwined with in the United States is abortion. Those who oppose abortion regularly claim that it is against God’s will to take any human life, which they feel begins at conception. The “Jesus Wasn’t Planned Either” sticker is a very blatant and interesting take on the subject. It both supports the anti-abortion advocates’ position that you don’t know what lives you might be preventing, while adding an interesting and unexpected dimension to the immaculate conception. The “Keep Your Rosary Off My Ovaries” sticker brings up the question of religious freedom- any other issues aside, is it right to legislate onto all people convictions that are based in an individual’s religion?
